Know the resources and discounts for senior veteran’s in home supportive services

While many of our nation’s veterans are eligible to receive VA benefits, which can also cover the costs of in home supportive services, not all senior veterans are even aware that they can apply for financial assistance to get the home care and support they need to maintain a high-quality lifestyle.

If your senior loved one is a veteran, Comfort Keepers can help you determine if they can qualify for VA benefits. There are some basic requirements they need to meet to enjoy all the perks of this program. The first criterion is active military duty for a minimum of 90 days, with at least one day during wartime.

Additionally, only veterans who were honorably discharged can get VA benefits. Other criteria include the need for in home services and insufficient funds to pay for care. The surviving spouses of eligible veterans can also receive VA benefits.

If your parent doesn’t have all the necessary documentation to prove they meet the criteria for VA benefits, our in home supportive services can help with gathering all the paperwork. As we can help your loved one complete the application process in the shortest timespan possible, they can also receive adequate home care much faster.

Our veteran’s care can include a plethora of services aimed at increasing independence and improving health and wellness in senior veterans. Our loving caregivers have all completed extensive training upon joining our team and they continue to expand their skills and knowledge on a regular basis. Constantly improving the quality of our in home services, we can guarantee the best possible caregiving experience for our clients, who all have different care needs, preferences, and interests.

Once we meet your loved one and gain a better understanding of their medical conditions, abilities, and limitations, we can propose an appropriate, fully personalized care plan. We can offer our services on a part-time, full-time or 24/7 basis, with the option of providing respite care on demand.

Our in home supportive services, which can range from personal care and mobility assistance to light housekeeping and incidental transportation, are all developed with the well-being of our clients in mind. With the undivided attention and support from our devoted caregivers, your parent can thrive both physically and mentally in the safety and comfort of their own home.
